THE NEW RAILROAD LAW.

OF the Interstate Commerce Act,
which has gone into effect, the New York
World says:
Much talk and a large quantity and
poor quality of wit are being expended
on the alleged indefiniteness of the Inter
state Commerce law. Yet the railroad
men are making c~ommendable progress
in their preparations to meet its require.
ments, and seem to have gained a reason
ably clear understanding of its general
principles. 1t is imperfect, doubtless, in
many of it's details, but the Act itself is
one of the best and most important
pieces of legislation in the history of the
Government. 1t is the foundation upon
which is to be reared all the legal rela-
tions between the national authority and
the transportation system.
Beyond the establishment of the fixed
principles of no discrimination either
between individuals or localities, and Of
just charges, the bill is essentially of a
tentative character, with much left to
the Judgment of the Commissioners. 1t
is their business to make a careful study
OF the situation, and to take means to
correct evils as they become clearly
understood. 1t is not reasonable TO sup.
pose that everything can be set right at
once. Whatever future legislation is
necessary will be directed in the light of
practical experience-provided that rec.
concentrations of the Commissioners are
followed. And herein may be seen the

A BLOW At ATTEMPTED CORRuPTIoN OF THE LKGIsLA
TURE.

TURE.
Governor Ames, OF Massachusetts,, In his veto OF
the Beverly division bill. sent to the legislature
yesterday. says: II the bill involved only the Ques
ton OF the division OF Beverly, he should hesitate
to set up his opinion against that OF the legislature
but under the recent investigation it appears that
very large sums OF money, altogether dispropor.
tionate to the honest necessities OF the case have
been raised and expended in the promotion and
passage or the bill. While, Of course, no member
OF the legislature has taken or would take
money for his vote, yet SUM $4,000 has been
spent Indirectly in influencing the action
or the legislature. 1t is no excuse that
such things or worse have happened without ex-
posure." The governor regards it as his duty TO
the State and to the maintenance OF wholesome
public sentiment, which shall be above suspicion,
to act upon the reports Of the investigating COM
mfttees and to strike emphaticaly at the evil thus
unearthed. Not to do so is to excuse and encour-
age monstrously bad and corTuptive practice.
He believes that the legislature, which had COM
mitted itself to the bill before the exposure OF the
methods for Its promotion, will agree with him
that 1t IS better that the executive approaching II
for the first time and finding it tainted, should
veto 1t. The governor closes by saying that the
reputation OF the legislature OF Massachusetts, for
honesty is high that it should not miss this OPP
pOrtunity for reconsideration, with view 80 de-
nOunce and condemn, In the most emphatic man.
ner, anything that tends to discredit It.
